DART Public Transit Service Returns To Delaware City

Delaware City -- July 18, 2011
Today, the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT), DART First State and the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) announced public transit service to Delaware City, the first scheduled bus service to the city in four decades. The one-year pilot service is made possible through a grant from the DNREC Community Environmental Project Fund that invests in projects to improve communities that have been affected by environmental violations.

Delaware Transit Executive Director Stephen Kingsberry and DNREC Secretary Collin O Mara were joined by Delaware City Mayor John Buchheit, Delaware Representative Valerie Longhurst (15th District), Main Street Program Manager Mark Chura, and city merchants and residents who applauded the bus route extension to the City.
